More Northern Lights are expected.




People are wondering when there will be more northern lights, especially in those regions that are very rarely seen, especially after the great solar storms that occurred between May 10 and 13, including a G5 that is the maximum level of solar storm.


The auroras are spectacular, they are beautiful, but I remind you that they are a consequence of something that brings many problems, many headaches, many failures and many economic losses; headaches especially for those who manage space satellites or even air routes because the air routes that pass through the poles have to be diverted in the event of a powerful solar storm.

One of these consequences as a result of the recent and very curious solar storms is the failure of dozens of tractors in the United States that were immobilized in the planting fields due to problems with their GPS and the GPS for this type of tractors is essential to be able to do the precision agriculture and control work that these automated tractors do.


And there is the possibility of seeing auroras in the coming days, the risk of level for one to occur and we are also in a very sensitive time, since we are at solar maximum, which occurs once every 11 years within the 11-year cycle of the sun.



Souce


During solar maximum there are more sunspots, more coronal mass ejections, more flares and more and more powerful solar storms and it is not over, it is estimated that it could last until October of this year more or less and we also have these days back The sunspot that gave us the super storm of May 10 is more diluted and weakened, but it is still active and continues to launch class X flares.


And to top it off, solar physicist Ryan Franch of the national solar observatory stated that starting June 6, that is, starting tomorrow, coinciding with a new moon phase, the conditions would be ideal to witness auroras, this is because by not having the light of the moon we will have the darkest skies so we can better see the light of the auroras, even the faintest ones, as long as we are unlucky (because I keep saying that this phenomenon is not good) to suffer a solar storm.



Souce


And it can happen because on June 3 this same scientist Ryan French published these impressive images of a giant filament in the sun on In addition, it seems increasingly unstable, and it could end up releasing an injection of coronal mass, which is a cloud of plasma and particles that impacts the Earth, as it would end up generating a solar storm and triggering the northern lights and also the aurora australis.

Well, it's my dream to see northern lights once in my life...

You have very good chances, but I just hope that the storms only produce auroras and not any damage.

May you be very well!
